  2. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    Time duration of 10 seconds Binaural Beats Base tone 200 Hz, beat frequency from 7 Hz to 12.9 Hz. Time duration of 9 minutes. "Binaural beats were first discovered by physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove in 1839. They are an auditory illusion that is perceived when two different pure-tone sine waves, both with frequencies lower than 1500 Hz and less ...

  3. Binaural unmasking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_unmasking

    Binaural unmasking is most effective at low frequencies. The BMLD for pure tones in broadband noise reaches a maximum value of about 15 decibels (dB) at 250 Hz and progressively declines to 2-3 dB at 1500 Hz. The BMLD then stabilises at 2-3 dB for all higher frequencies, up to at least 4 kHz. [2]

  4. Brainwave entrainment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwave_entrainment

    Brainwave entrainment is a colloquialism for 'neural entrainment', [25] which is a term used to denote the way in which the aggregate frequency of oscillations produced by the synchronous electrical activity in ensembles of cortical neurons can adjust to synchronize with the periodic vibration of external stimuli, such as a sustained acoustic ...

  5. Binaural recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_recording

    Binaural recording is a method of recording sound that uses two microphones, arranged with the intent to create a 3D stereo sound sensation for the listener of actually being in the room with the performers or instruments.

  6. Gamma wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_wave

    A gamma wave or gamma rhythm is a pattern of neural oscillation in humans with a frequency between 30 and 100 Hz, the 40 Hz point being of particular interest. [1] Gamma rhythms are correlated with large-scale brain network activity and cognitive phenomena such as working memory , attention , and perceptual grouping , and can be increased in ...

  7. Alpha wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_wave

    This wave begins appearing at around four months, and is initially a frequency of 4 waves per second. The mature alpha wave, at 10 waves per second, is firmly established by age 3. Other research finds an increase in alpha frequency from about 9 Hz at the age of five to about 12 Hz in 21 year olds.

  8. Theta wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_wave

    The frequency of the theta waves increases as a function of running speed, starting at about 6.5 Hz on the low end, and increasing to about 9 Hz at the fastest running speeds, although higher frequencies are sometimes seen for brief high-velocity movements such as jumps across wide gaps.

  9. Temporal theory (hearing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_theory_(hearing)

    The temporal theory of hearing, also called frequency theory or timing theory, states that human perception of sound depends on temporal patterns with which neurons respond to sound in the cochlea. Therefore, in this theory, the pitch of a pure tone is determined by the period of neuron firing patterns—either of single neurons, or groups as ...
